Sunset Twins

Critique Style Requested: Standard

The photographer is looking for generalized feedback about the aesthetic and technical qualities of their image.

Description

I jumped up from watching the ball game when I saw these cuties come into the backyard at sunset last night. Knowing how skittish they are I did not open the window and shot them thru the glass. They were close so I also had to settle for this somewhat tight crop.

Specific Feedback

Exposure? Cropping?

These twins are adorable Dave. Tough distance to get both in good focus. I think it would be better if the one closest to us was the one in better focus. I think you could have reduced the SS and stopped down the aperture a bit more to get more of them in focus. Your camera really handled the high iso well without getting a lot of extra noise.
